Poll Shows Mourdock and Lugar Virtually Tied

From Roll Call we have this  this interesting news:


A new poll conducted for the Club for Growth showed Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) and his primary challenger, state Treasurer Richard Mourdock, in a statistical dead heat.

Mourdock had a small advantage over Lugar, 34 percent to 32 percent, in the Basswood Research poll released Tuesday. But Mourdock’s 2-point lead is within the poll’s 4.4-point margin of error.
 
“An incumbent who sits at 32 percent in his own party’s primary, and trails a much less known challenger, is in a world of trouble,” Chris Chocola, a former Indiana Congressman, said in a statement. “Senator Lugar is a very decent man, but it’s clear from the poll that after 35 years, Hoosier Republicans are eager for a more conservative alternative.”

Come to the August 2 CIA Meeting!


Our next CIA meeting will be at 6:30 pm, Tuesday, August 2 at Spurlock's Restaurant, 721 Main Street, Lafayette. As usual, we have reserved their private room and will be ordering from their standard menu, but you are not required to eat there.
